Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition

The Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition (RARE) was an expedition from 1947-1948 which researched the area surrounding the head of the Weddell Sea in Antarctica. Finn Ronne led the RARE which was the final privately sponsored expedition from the United States. The expedition included Isaac Schlossbach, as second in command, who was to have Cape Schlossbach named after him. This was the first expedition to take women to over-winter. Ronne took his wife as did the chief pilot Darlington.
